27–3

We suck. Even worse, State eked out a win in OT against UAB.

I have a feeling that even Ron Franklin won’t be able to make next week’s Ole Miss–Georgia contest tolerable to a national viewing audience.

At least the team you’re kinda rooting for didn’t give up a game-winning 80-yd TD drive in less than a minute.

Well, buddy, at least you didn’t sit in the stadium for 2 hours during the weather delay. Fun times were had by all! The fieldturf drains really well. If we still had grass, not only would the grass already be dead, but they would have had to buy every ShopVac at Home Depot to vacuum it all off.

You summed it up; we suck.

I don’t know anything about sound engineering, but you could hear the audio really well at the stadium. Could the wind have had something to do with that b/c I’m sure Boone didn’t spend a cent on it. Rupert did the “Hotty Toddy” before the game.

If the recruiting season ended today, we’d have the #4 ranked class, but we need 2 or 3 years of that before we can even think about contending. We need to get loaded up with size, size, size on the lines. There have got to be a couple more Michael Oher’s out there. O needs to find him.

To have been a fly on the wall in the locker room last night… The early word was he told P-Willie to leave and then proceeded to put the fear of God into each and every other player, basically saying the only set starter is at MLB and everyone elses job was on the line. Of course who knows how much of that is true and I don’t know if I like the idea of segregating your best player so much from the rest of the team, but at the end of the day, P-Willie is the only guy out there doing his job and you can bet the NFL scouts are noticing.

Hey Alfie, at least the confrontation between the students and Cobra security provided some entertainment during the rain delay. As it turns out, the pregame rail-jumpers spent more time in the endzone than the players did.

Yeah, Andrew, I didn’t see any of that, but heard about it afterward. I was attempting to get dry under the bleachers. I thought we had hired another security company, but it must have fallen through, as I saw the Cobra “professionals” in full force Saturday. At least no pepper spray was used like 2002…

 

Glad to hear Cobra’s competency level hasn’t increased since I left Oxford… good that some things never change.
